Hello,
How come that I cannot umount and eject a CDROM or ZIP disc when it has
been mounted in an NFS (DOS) machine and unmounted.
The drive is reported as busy.
I have to stop nfs, umount and eject the disc, then start nfs again.
Thanks in advance
Gaston

If you export the CDROM/ZIP, the server regards it as busy regardless of
whether any clients are using it (remember, NFS is stateless). It should
be sufficient to do 'exportfs -u /mnt/cdrom' (use the appropriate path on
the server). You should not need to stop nfs.
